Happit has been the dealmaker for 50 % of our new customers since the partnership was established based on the statistics – Antti Jokinen, Business Director

“Happit has been the dealmaker for 50 % of our new customers since the partnership was established based on the statistics. When interviewing customers they tell that Happit underlines Cloudriven’s capability to support in user adoption challenges.“ says Cloudriven’s Office 365 business director Antti Jokinen.

User adoption is the challenge # 1

I do not know a sales person who would say that the best part of her job is to use CRM – Tuomas Kesti, Business Director

Short time ago customers were struggling with maintenance fees caused by forgotten passwords after every summer vacation period. Nowadays people are still struggling with the usage of the software even though they can reset their passwords without external help and the costs are hidden.

“I do not know a sales person who would say that the best part of her job is to use CRM. And if I would know I would say as a customer that I would love to change the contact person. I hope that dealing with the customers is the best part of any sales person’s workday.” states Tuomas Kesti who is responsible for Cloudriven’s Dynamics 365 business.

Software skills are not on top of the priority list for most of the employees and thus they tend to forget things like “why and how to use software xyz” instructions. Consuming colleague help, waiting for a training or asking from helpdesk costs money and time. Happit offers an answer to most of the questions directly in the user interface and helps customer organizations to save from unnecessary costs. In addition to that it generates valuable data about the user adoption for partners.
